The Red Line - Kim Richey

I was standing on the platform, waiting for a train

The conductor gave a signal, but I’d left it far too late

Yeah, I meant to buy a ticket, meant to make a call

Guess I’ll smoke another cigarette and lean against the wall

And watch the world go by

The man with the brief case has come in out of the rain

He had trouble with the razor in a rush to meet the train

There’s a girl from Lincoln Park, a girl all dressed in red

Who had words with the baker for running out of bread

Watch the world go by

Watch the world go by

Tomorrow is another day

Today’s not over yet

Na na na

Na na na na na

Na na na na na na

Na na na

Na na na na na

Na na na na na na

Na na na na

Somebody left a paper;

I can catch up on the news

See if someone’s into something, something I could use, yeah

But, I don’t really care, I’m leaving here come fall

Guess I’ll smoke another cigarette, lean against the wall

And watch the world go by

Watch the world go by

Watch the world go by
